As winter approaches, motorists are advised to undertake crucial preventative maintenance to ensure vehicle safety and reliability. A recent online video by automotive expert "Capturing Cars" highlighted five essential checks. According to the expert, a weak car battery is the leading cause of winter breakdowns, stressing the importance of testing it before cold weather sets in. "In cold weather, car batteries drain faster," the expert noted. "If your car struggles to start, or dashboard lights dim, get your battery tested."The video also emphasized the necessity of topping up antifreeze and winter-grade screenwash to prevent freezing and maintain clear visibility. Wipers and lights require thorough inspection, with the expert advising replacement of squeaking or streaking wiper blades and regular cleaning of all lights due to increased road salt and grime. Furthermore, ensuring the car's heating and demister systems are fully functional is paramount for both comfort and clear visibility. Finally, carrying an emergency winter kit, including an ice scraper, a proper torch (not a phone flashlight), a blanket or warm coat, a phone charger, basic tools, jump leads, snacks, and water, was strongly recommended for unforeseen situations.
